Can this tool help with any market?

Yep, it's market-agnostic! Whether you're trading forex pairs, stocks, or even crypto, the principle of risk versus reward applies. Just plug in your numbers, and the calculator will do the rest, no matter what you're trading.

What if my ratio is less than 1:1?

If your ratio is below 1:1, it means you're risking more than you stand to gain, which isn't ideal for most strategies. You might want to rethink your stop-loss or target levels. The tool will flag this so you can adjust before jumping in.
